As I move
bags of greasy sweat
run colors through my eyes
As I look
feeling the broken glass
the crushed metal pinching close
As I breath
I peer out and see the blood
of the man in the other car
and
As I think
my last coherant words are
"I ran the light"

Yes, it does happen so very fast. Something you can't take back after it done.
Your imagery is very good.

Oh my gosh.....it is so true it can happen in a single moment that lasts an eternity. Powerful and very moving poem. **hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
